Capítulo 21: Execution

(Same Day)

"Hey, Ryu."Sasuke called out to me, turning to him I respond.

"Yeah Sasuke?"I asked.

"I wanted to talk about the massacre."

"Sure, what do you want to know?"

"You said Danzo gave Itachi two options, right? So he was the one who pushed Itachi to do it?"He asked me.

"Yeah."

"But it was Itachi's decision, right?"Sasuke asked again to which I nodded.

"I see... I guess I will always hate Itachi for choosing the Leaf instead of his own family, but he also did it to protect me, but why? Why couldn't he stand by my family? Why couldn't he fight with his family? We could've won! But Itachi went and killed them all! Just, just to protect me. Why me? I'm not special, so why did he choose me, over everything else?! Over our family! Over our parents! Over every person in our clan! Why me?!"Sasuke said while breaking out in tears, hugging him, I respond.

"That's not something I can answer Sasuke, that's only something Itachi can answer, but he'll always love you no matter what you do, that I can tell."I said and let him cry in our hug, doing what any good friend would do, doing what any brother would do. After he stops crying I take out the Jar with the Sharingans in it from my pouch.

"Ryu, why do you have that?"He asked me surprised.

"It's the Sharingans Danzo had, you see, while Danzo pushed Itachi to kill your clan or he'll do it himself, it was all for a different motive, Danzo wanted the power of the Sharingan, even though he hated Uchiha's and feared what would happen if another Madara came to be, he revered the power the Sharingan holds."I explained, and he gained an angered look.

"So Danzo forced the Uchiha massacre, just to get Sharingans and destroy the threat we could've posed?"He asked while I nodded, and looking at him I see his Sharingan flare up to response to his anger making me think for a second he'll get MS but shake those thoughts away since this doesn't really fit the criteria to get MS. Getting up I see Sasuke start marching towards the Hokage office, deciding not wanting to deal with that I let him go, a little payback at Hiruzen for protecting Danzo for so long.

(1 Week Later)

Waking up I hear the bustling of people outside, though what confused me is why since sure the execution is today but later in the day and not this early in the morning. Getting dressed quickly I go out onto the streets of Konoha and see a bunch of people on each side of the street whispering to each other, wondering why I go ahead of them and see Tsunade with Shizune and TonTon walking towards the Hokage office.

'So this is why, I was expecting this since there would be no way Hiruzen won't tell her of what happened because if she found out on her own there would be hell to pay.'I thought seeing them, going back to my home I start to prepare food as usual, while eating breakfast I speak.

"So the execution is today, Sasuke, you don't want to do anything too Danzo?"I asked since I thought Sasuke would want to take some form of revenge on Danzo.

"Don't worry, I'll be the one to kill him."He said calmly surprising me, maybe I should've gone when he went to Hokage's office.

"Why are you gonna be the one to execute him?"Naruto asked confused, right, forgot to update him on everything.

"Don't worry, everything will be found out later."I said and he huffed before nodding in response. Finishing our morning routine we start to head to the execution area early since Sasuke is gonna be the one to do it. Arriving there I see Danzo tied up and knocked out, but Tsunade with Shizune Tonton and Hiruzen are there also with a few Anbu.

"Hey! Old Man!"Naruto called seeing Hiruzen, running up to him he hugs him.

"Hahaha, hello Naruto."He said after a grandfatherly chuckle.

"Hey, Old man, who's the pretty lady?"Naruto asked Hiruzen absentmindedly getting a chuckle out of Tsunade.

"Brat, are you trying to flirt with me?"She asked Naruto with an amused look with made Naruto blush in embarrassment.

"And what about you brats, what you think about me?"She asked me and Sasuke with a Teasing look but Sasuke kept a straight face while I gave a friendly smile in response.

"Sorry Lady Tsunade, but I have a girlfriend who'd I pick any day over someone or something else."I said and her face dropped.

"*Sigh* You guys are no fun, but nice to know at least one of you brats know of me. So you're the last Uchiha, huh?"Tsunade said.

"Yeah, why are you here though Lady Tsunade?"Sasuke asked him.

"Oh, you didn't hear yet? Guess you'll find out later, wish I got here sooner though so I can torture him."Tsunade said.

"Lucky him you got here late then I guess, with you being the best healer in the elemental nations he'd probably get no rest."I said jokingly.

"You're not wrong."She responded back jokingly as well but a certain malice in her voice.

"Anyway, you sure you want to kill him brat? you're still young to kill a person."Tsunade voiced her opinion to Sasuke.

"Sorry Lady Tsunade, but this is something I need to do, to avenge my clan, all the people he's wronged."Sasuke said with clear determination.

"Huh, guess you'll make a fine ninja one day with that will of yours."Tsunade said with a smirk.

"Ehem, I believe we should start to prepare everything for his execution."Hiruzen said, reminding us of his existence.

"Sure."Sasuke gave a short response.

"Alright then, then get to it."Hiruzen said to Sasuke and the Anbu who began their work.

(1 Hour Later)

"We have gathered here. today, for the execution of Danzo Shimura, he has committed various crimes, a few is trying to assassinate me, kidnapping orphans to raise them into soldiers."Hiruzen said getting gasps from the crowd, it's only adults since kids shouldn't see something like this.

"But there are more serious ones, ones that can't be forgiven by any means."Hiruzen continued getting murmurs from the crowd talking between themselves, wondering what he did that could be worse.

"Danzo Shimura, violated the body of our First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and implanted the First Hokage's cells into his own body to gain more power for himself, but not only this, he also took the eyes of Dead Uchiha's from the massacre and implanted them into his body."Hiruzen said getting even more and louder gasps from the crowd, but there was one thing someone said that threw the crowd into a frenzy.

"Kill Him!"One of them jeered, and soon all of the people in the crowd started chanting it.

"That is exactly what we are here for people! Sasuke Uchiha, will be the one to kill him."He yelled at first to quell the crowd which worked, and then announced Sasuke will kill him. Walking up to the stage where Danzo is, Sasuke has a axe in hand while Danzo is under a guillotine with his head under the path of the blade.

"For those of you who do not wish to watch, look away now."Hiruzen said after Sasuke arrived next to the rope holding the blade. Bringing the axe up, he swings it down, cutting the rope, and slicing Danzo's head off, but then the body that should've been Danzo, transformed into someone else. Seeing this, only one thought came to mind, Akatsuki.
